b) Give the value of the point estimate described in this scenario.
c) Give the value of the standard error for the point estimate.
d) Give the value of the margin of error if you were to calculate a 99% confidence interval.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) The 99% confidence interval for the proportion of all students who had use of a computer at home and give it in interval notation is (0.709, 0.911).

b) 0.81

c) 0.039.

d) 0.101

Step-by-step explanation:

Question a:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In which

z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

In a randomly selected sample of 100 students at a University, 81 of them had access to a computer at home.

This means that [tex]n = 100, \pi = \frac{81}{100} = 0.81[/tex]

99% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.01}{2} = 0.995[/tex], so [tex]Z = 2.575[/tex].

The lower limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.81 - 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.81*0.19}{100}} = 0.709[/tex]

The upper limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.81 + 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.81*0.19}{100}} = 0.911[/tex]

The 99% confidence interval for the proportion of all students who had use of a computer at home and give it in interval notation is (0.709, 0.911).

b) Give the value of the point estimate described in this scenario.

Sample proportion of [tex]\pi = 0.81[/tex]

c) Give the value of the standard error for the point estimate.

This is:

[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.81*0.19}{100}} = 0.039[/tex]

The standard error is of 0.039.

d) Give the value of the margin of error if you were to calculate a 99% confidence interval.

This is:

[tex]M = zs = 2.575*0.039 = 0.101[/tex]

Assume the random variable X is normally distributed with mean μ = 50 and standard deviation σ= 7. Compute the probability.

Answers

Complete question is;

Assume the random variable X is normally distributed with mean μ = 50 and standard deviation σ = 7. What is the probability P (X > 42)?

Answer:

P(X > 42) = 0.1271

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

mean; μ = 50

Standard deviation; σ = 7

Formula for the z-score is;

z = (x - μ)/σ

Thus;

z = (42 - 50)/7

z = -1.14

Since we are looking for P (X > 42), then let's look up this z-value from the z-distribution table attached.

We have;

P(X > 42) = 0.1271

triangle area ?​

Answers

25 root 3 divided by 2
Base is 5. Height is 5 root 3
Multiply then divide by 2

Answer:

A= 21.65063509

Step-by-step explanation:

triangle area is =base*hight/2

Because we have a right triangle we can apply the trigonometric functions

sin30 =base/hypothenuse = base/10

cos 30 = hight/hypothenuse =hight/10

sin30 = base /10  ; multiply both sides by 10

base = 10*sin30

cos 30 = hight /10 ; multiply both sides by 10

hight = 10 cos 30

A= 10*sin30*10*cos30/2 =

      100*sin 30*cos 30/2=

            50*sin30*cos30 = ; use calculator make sure is set up in degrees

Answers

Mark Brainliest please


Answer: 10 years

Explanation:


The original cost of the machine = 20000

The scrap value of the machine = 13122

Value of the machine = ( 20000 - 13122 ) = 6878

Depreciation of the machine for the first year = ( 6878 * 10 % )
= 687.8
So, the effective life of the machine is = ( 6878 / 687.8 )
= 10 years
